Built for a list, not a single title.

Your authors review. Your terms stay private.

Every book gets a private review room you can forward to its author. They listen chapter by chapter, leave notes at the exact second, or record a voice note, and approve as they go. You see every note and every fix.

Hear finished work

Billing goes to you, not the room.

An author's room never shows prices, invoices, or your other titles. Invoices go to the publisher only.

Your house, not ours.

Rooms carry the book's cover and the author's name. We work in your thread, with whoever you put on it.

A note is fixed once, across the whole book.

When an author flags a name, a stress, or a read, we fix every instance in the book, not just the line they flagged. The word is locked in the book's glossary, so later chapters and later books in the series say it the same way.

Try it on one chapter

Built for note-heavy authors.

Verse references, invented names, foreign words, scripture, dialect. Round after round, until the author signs off.

Every change is logged.

Each new take shows what changed since the last one, so an author can check their notes in minutes.

Full cast, picked by your ear.

For fiction we cast every speaking role and send sample scenes with options for each one, so your editors choose the voices. One narrator for nonfiction, devotionals, and memoir. Series keep the same cast from book one to the last.

Browse the voice catalogue

Directed, then mastered.

A producer directs pacing and tone, checks every line against the manuscript, and masters to retailer specs. Music and sound design when the book wants it, voice only when it does not.

Your author's own voice.

An author can record a few minutes in the browser and narrate their own books, used only for their titles.

Your stores, or ours.

Take the finished masters and an acceptance certificate to your own distributor. Or we publish to Audible, Spotify, Apple Books, Google Play, Kobo, libraries and more under Lex's publisher agreements, and forward the royalties monthly with a statement per store.

How publishing wide works

No royalty share.

You own the masters and the commercial rights. No term, no exclusivity. Lex takes no royalties. On Audible and Spotify you keep the full author share. On every other store the distribution partner keeps 20% of net.

Mind the 90 days.

Titles in an Amazon exclusivity term go to Audible first, then wide the day the term ends.

The words stay your author's.

We read the book as written. Nothing is rewritten, summarised, or generated. People cast, direct, score, and check every title, and your books are never used to train any AI model, ours or anyone's.

Commercial license summary

Contracts first.

If a title's contract rules out synthetic narration, we skip it. We only produce titles where you hold the audio rights.

License in plain English.

The signed agreement ships with every delivery. The public summary is on the commercial license page.

How do we start?

One free sample, one pilot title, then the list. Catalog pricing is custom and set by volume.

  1. 1

    We sample a book from your list.

    Pick a backlist title with no audio, or let us pick one. A finished sample lands in a private room, free.

  2. 2

    Pilot one full title.

    Your editors and the book's author review it chapter by chapter. Every note gets fixed.

  3. 3

    Schedule the list.

    Catalog pricing is custom and set by volume. Titles move through in a steady weekly cadence, each in its own room.

Questions publishers ask first
